Store Owners Prepared To Shoot Armed Robbers

Burlington, Vermont — February 9, 2007

Some small store owners say they are armed, waiting, and willing to shoot if they are targeted by a gun-toting robber.

It is the latest development in response to a record-setting rash of armed robberies in Vermont since the new year started.

Some store owners tell Channel 3 that they have armed themselves and are fully prepared to shoot any armed robber, including the backward bandit. None of the armed store owners were willing to speak on camera, but they stressed they want any would-be armed robber to know that they will not hesitate to shoot.

The store owners say they feel forced forced to pack pistols at work in response to crooks like the backward bandit. Police say he has knocked over four stores in the past two weeks. He wears a backward sweatshirt with eye hole cutouts. But he has not been alone. There have already 18 armed stick-ups in Vermont this year.

No one has been injured yet. But a number of store owners say that could change because they are now packing pistols and are prepared to use them if an armed robber shows up.

State Police say deadly force in self-defense is legal in Vermont but it is not the right response.

They suspect most, if not all, of the armed robbers are drug addicts desperate for cash, so it would be far wiser and safer to simply hand over the money, and let the cops catch the bad guys.
